DOWNLOAD EBOOKAs a graduate of medical school and practicing pediatrician, Dr. Julie Currin was intimately aware of the amazing stages of fetal growth and development occurring during each of her three pregnancies. It wasn't until her own sister's pregnancy, however, that Currin realized how little reliable and accessible information was available to expectant parents who haven't had the benefit of complex embryology and anatomy classes. So, with her sister and her sister's rapidly growing unborn child in mind, Currin set out to translate the complex stages of growth she learned about during medical school courses into a compilation of fun, interesting, and scientifically sound information that expectant parents can understand. Now she's making Before Birth available to everyone. Organized according to the forty-week model of pregnancy, Currin uses clear language and colorful illustrations to convey the complex mystery of fetal development to audiences unfamiliar with or daunted by medical terminology. While other books focus on the changes to the mother's body, Before Birth focuses specifically on the rapid growth of the tiny being inside the mother- allowing parents to ask informed questions at prenatal visits and marvel at their child's magnificence before they ever meet.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe delivery of high quality and equitable care for both mothers and newborns is complex and requires efforts across many sectors. The United States spends more on childbirth than any other country in the world, yet outcomes are worse than other high-resource countries, and even worse for Black and Native American women. There are a variety of factors that influence childbirth, including social determinants such as income, educational levels, access to care, financing, transportation, structural racism and geographic variability in birth settings. It is important to reevaluate the United States' approach to maternal and newborn care through the lens of these factors across multiple disciplines. Birth Settings in America: Outcomes, Quality, Access, and Choice reviews and evaluates maternal and newborn care in the United States, the epidemiology of social and clinical risks in pregnancy and childbirth, birth settings research, and access to and choice of birth settings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKBonding Before Birth combines up-to-the-minute research with enlightened and compassionate wisdom. This book explores what science knows about babies in the womb and explains why mother-baby bonding is so vital for the future well-being of mother, father, and baby. Dr. Miriam Stoppard writes about the feelings that expectant parents experience during the first, second and third trimesters and promotes the significance of rites of passage through pregnancy, from adjusting to the changes that parenthood brings to celebrating your future as a family. The emotional and psychological elements of pregnancy are often overlooked in favor of hard facts and scientific evidence. This book redresses the balance and turns its attention to the conflicting feelings of exhilaration and anxiety, dreams and fears that so often characterize the nine months of pregnancy and gives parents-to-be inspiring guidance through these uncharted waters.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA bad start in life does not mean that one must stay there. Weakness is an invitation to become stronger. Fear prevents one from living a full and joyous life. Addiction binds and blinds us until we come to our senses and step into our new identity that awaits our arrival. Consequently, poverty may rob us, fears may chase us, people may deny us, racism may embrace us, and drugs may control us, but our faith saves us. We overcome anything placed in our pathway by not accepting bad starts/fears/weakness/addiction or character triats that are not profitable. From Crack to Clergy: Provoking Thoughts takes us where bad starts do not set the pace for life. Fears are faced boldly. Weakness has become a strength. Addiciton leads to a deeper thinking process which causes one to look inside- come inside- stay inside because the power lies inside to launch one forward. Life brings many pains, and sometimes it seems we are forever in chains. However, change is always possible if we are willing to face the Lion and continue to roar back, if we move into our new being awaiting us in order to step into our true identity. We learn how to overcome and view each problem as an opportunity as we grow and learn more.
